With the lack of an organiser who has the knowledge the run this event, the committee has had to make the sad and difficult decision to stop running the Swanage Horse & Pony Show.

The good news is that a group of local riders have got together and is carrying on with a show which will be called The Swanage Horse Show. They are based at Godlingston Manor Yard, Swanage and the show will be held in the same field as it has been for the past two years.

We have also agreed that our Horse Show cups and trophies can be used by them and Mr Ben Bowerman of Godlingston Manor has bought the jumps.

We would like to wish this new show every success and fully support it.
